So what have we learned in 2 millennia?

"The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled,public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands
should be curtailed, lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance."

- Cicero - 55 BC
If the U.S. had taken all that money it spent on the Vietnamese war, the 2 Iraqi wars and Afghanistan war,
trillions of dollars now and still counting. If they had just given that money to those Vietnamese, Iraqi and the Afghans people, it would have given everybody enough money to live on for the rest of their lives. If the West would spend as much money on the poor of the world as they spend on arms, it would solve all the world's poverty problems!
